CBRE wins

For the seventh year in a row, CB Richard Ellis has been voted the leader in commercial real estate, according to a survey of real estate professionals from around the world. The survey was released this week.

The Lipsey Co. conducts the survey, which measures how those in the industry view different commercial real estate companies.

More than 20,000 people participated in the survey from across the U.S. and internationally.

“Our peers have spoken, and for the seventh straight year, they have chosen CB Richard Ellis as the top commercial real estate services brand in the world — another confirmation of the position we’ve attained, both in San Antonio and across the globe,” said Scott Senese, managing director for the San Antonio office, in a release.

The Lipsey Co. is a training and development company for the industry.

Los Angeles-based CBRE is the largest commercial real estate company in the world based on 2007 revenue, and has more than 29,000 employees.
